🙏Sorry, I thought it was crane age and uploaded it wrongly. At home. It is a gift of Tsurukame. I tasted it for the first time. I think it is a good sake that you can feel the sweetness and flavor of the rice. The aroma is mellow, and when you put it in your mouth, you can taste a little fruity and sweetness of the rice. The mouthfeel is a bit tart. Thank you very much for the delicious sake.

Purchased at Cardi's. Junmai sake made with wine yeast. Refreshingly sour and sweet. Light alcohol content of 12 degrees. It is like drinking white wine.

Niigata Souvenir Series #2 Echigo-Tsurukame is famous as the pioneer of wine yeast brewing! It has a caramel-like sweetness, a wine-like acidity, a light alty taste on the nose, and a slight bitterness, and it finishes with a refreshing crispness! It is different from the wine yeast brewed Hato Masamune and Hououmida... It has a very light aftertaste, yet it has a wine-like astringency. It seems to have a characteristic or not...it is difficult to evaluate... I've had a lot of wine yeast brewed sake, so that's how I feel about it, but I think it would be rather shocking if a beginner to sake drank it.

Echigo-Tsurukame's Koshiichi, which I had never heard of before, but when I found out it was Star Wars, I bought it at a liquor store near there on my way home from a client's office 😆. They had two bottles for sale, Vader (Darth Vader) and A New Hope (Episode 4) and maybe the opposite. I wanted both, but it was tough to carry two bottles home from work, so I went with Vader this time 😬. (Vader is deep, heavy and majestic, while A New Hope is fresh and crisp.) It looks like Darth Vader? I'm not sure 🌑. Pouring it out of the jet black bottle and drinking it, it's surprisingly fresh💦? A little fruity? A little sour, a little acidic? Low alcohol, maybe easy to drink? On the second day, though, it tastes even better 😋 A little more sweet? Tastes good with just the right amount of acidity 😋. I thought it would be more like the dark side 👿? I thought it would be more dark side 👿, but I guess it's still more Anakin? (Sorry if you don't know Star Wars) But still, I want to explore the world of this series a little more 😜. I was wondering if you have any Darth Vader stuff at home? I looked for one, but all I could find was a cap for the airing place on my bike!

Good evening, Mr. Takashi! Echigo-Tsurukame, I didn't know they had such a sake 🎵. I was in Osaka wondering why the bicycle air cap from the many goodies 🤣.

Good evening, ma-ki-😊. I also found out about Star Wars drinks ☄️ the other day! My oldest and youngest sons, who are now out of the house, both love Star Wars, so I thought there would be a lot of Vader stuff around, but this was all I could find 🤣.

Hi Takashi 😃 I couldn't imagine Star Wars from Echigo-Tsurukame 😅It would be nice to drink it while remembering the excitement of my boyhood when I saw Episode 4 😌.

The second sake was Echigo Tsurukame. It has a strong image of being made with wine yeast, but this one is a rather classic sake with a delicious rice flavor 🍶. It was delicious. 🙆‍♂️

The aroma has the sweetness and acidity of green apple and the umami of rice. On the palate, the gas hits the mouth and smoothly fills the mouth with sweetness and acidity, the low alcohol passes through the nose, and bitterness and umami linger in the aftertaste. There is no particular texture on the tongue.

The other day, I attended a local beer festival in Niigata, and this is the beer I bought at Niigata station on my way home. It's been a long time since I've had Tsurukame. Contrary to my expectation, it has a lot of sweetness and umami derived from rice. It seems to be low alcohol at 10%, but the voluptuousness doesn't make it seem so low. I thought it was interesting, but it ran out before I could finish it, because it was in cans.
